What are the Factors of 881?

The numbers that divide 881 evenly are known as factors of 881.

 

A factor of 881 is a number that divides the number without a remainder.

 

The factors of 881 are 1, 7, 11, 13, 77, 91, 143, and 881.

 

Negative factors of 881: -1, -7, -11, -13, -77, -91, -143, and -881.

 

Prime factors of 881: 7, 11, and 13.

 

Prime factorization of 881: 7 × 11 × 13.

 

The sum of factors of 881: 1 + 7 + 11 + 13 + 77 + 91 + 143 + 881 = 1224

How to Find Factors of 881?

Factors can be found using different methods. Mentioned below are some commonly used methods:

 

  • Finding factors using multiplication
     
  • Finding factors using the division method
     
  • Prime factors and prime factorization
Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Finding Factors Using Multiplication

To find factors using multiplication, we need to identify the pairs of numbers that are multiplied to give 881. Identifying the numbers which are multiplied to get the number 881 is the multiplication method.

 

Step 1: Multiply 881 by 1, 881 × 1 = 881.

 

Step 2: Check for other numbers that give 881 after multiplying 7 × 11 × 13 = 881

 

Therefore, the positive factor pairs of 881 are: (1, 881), (7, 11, 13).

 

All these factor pairs result in 881. For every positive factor, there is a negative factor.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Finding Factors Using Division Method

Dividing the given numbers with whole numbers until the remainder becomes zero and listing out the numbers which result as whole numbers as factors. Factors can be calculated by following a simple division method

 

Step 1: Divide 881 by 1, 881 ÷ 1 = 881.

 

Step 2: Continue dividing 881 by the numbers until the remainder becomes 0.

881 ÷ 1 = 881

881 ÷ 7 = 126.1428... (not a factor)

881 ÷ 11 = 80.0909... (not a factor)

881 ÷ 13 = 67.7692... (not a factor) Continue until all combinations are exhausted.

 

Therefore, the factors of 881 are: 1, 7, 11, 13, 77, 91, 143, 881.

Prime Factors and Prime Factorization

The factors can be found by dividing it with a prime number. We can find the prime factors using the following methods:

 

  • Using prime factorization
     
  • Using factor tree

 

Using Prime Factorization: In this process, prime factors of 881 divide the number to break it down in the multiplication form of prime factors till the remainder becomes 1.

881 ÷ 7 = 126.1428...

881 ÷ 11 = 80.0909...

881 ÷ 13 = 67.7692...

 

The prime factors of 881 are 7, 11, and 13.

 

The prime factorization of 881 is: 7 × 11 × 13.

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

Factor Tree

The factor tree is the graphical representation of breaking down any number into prime factors. The following step shows:

 

Step 1: Firstly, try to divide 881 by 7, 11, and 13 until you find the prime factors. So, the prime factorization of 881 is: 7 × 11 × 13.

 

Factor Pairs: Two numbers that are multiplied to give a specific number are called factor pairs. Both positive and negative factors constitute factor pairs.

 

Positive factor pairs of 881: (1, 881), (7, 11, 13).

 

Negative factor pairs of 881: (-1, -881), (-7, -11, -13).

Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them in Factors of 881

Mistakes are common while finding factors. We can identify and correct those mistakes using the following common mistakes and the ways to avoid them.

Mistake 1

Red Cross Icon Indicating Mistakes to Avoid in This Math Topic

Forgetting the number itself and 1 is a factor

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Children might forget to add the given number itself and 1 as a factor. The number itself and 1 are the factors for every number. Always remember to include 1 and the number itself.

 

For example, in factors of 881, 1 and 881 are also factors.

Problem 1

There are 7 teams and 881 candies. How will they divide it equally?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

They will get 126 candies each with 3 candies left over.

Explanation

To divide the candies equally, we need to divide the total candies by the number of teams.

881 ÷ 7 = 126 R3

Problem 2

A theater has 11 rows and a total of 881 seats. How many seats are in each row?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

Not possible to divide equally.

Explanation

To find the number of seats in each row, we divide the total seats by the number of rows.

881 ÷ 11 = 80.0909... (not an integer)
